Combine an attractive, young photographer, a handmade throwing tomahawk buried in the skull of a news reporter for whom she has no respect, and an over-eager cop, and you have the beginning of a great mystery read. Cassandra Cassidy is forced to clear her name, but before she figures out how to do that, she discovers two more bodies. All three murders are somehow connected to the annual Prairie River Trappers' Rendezvous, a Minnesota classic, and its cast of colorful characters. The detective is more convinced than ever of Cassandra's guilt.
Making matters worse, some of her friends begin to look like possible perpetrators. Cassandra turns to her photographic expertise to find clues which lead to the killer and clears her name and reputation.

Still a creative photographer and hopefully an improved sleuth, Cassandra beckons to me to read the next mystery in Betty McMahon's promising series.
